Download or read book The India Way written by S. Jaishankar and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2020-09-04 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The decade from the 2008 global financial crisis to the 2020 coronavirus pandemic has seen a real transformation of the world order. The very nature of international relations and its rules are changing before our eyes. For India, this means optimal relationships with all the major powers to best advance its goals. It also requires a bolder and non-reciprocal approach to its neighbourhood. A global footprint is now in the making that leverages India's greater capability and relevance, as well as its unique diaspora. This era of global upheaval entails greater expectations from India, putting it on the path to becoming a leading power. In The India Way, S. Jaishankar, India's Minister of External Affairs, analyses these challenges and spells out possible policy responses. He places this thinking in the context of history and tradition, appropriate for a civilizational power that seeks to reclaim its place on the world stage.

Book India and Asian Geopolitics

Download or read book India and Asian Geopolitics written by Shivshankar Menon and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A clear-eyed look at modern India's role in Asia's and the broader world One of India's most distinguished foreign policy thinkers addresses the many questions facing India as it seeks to find its way in the increasingly complex world of Asian geopolitics. A former Indian foreign secretary and national security adviser, Shivshankar Menon traces India's approach to the shifting regional landscape since its independence in 1947. From its leading role in the “nonaligned” movement during the cold war to its current status as a perceived counterweight to China, India often has been an after-thought for global leaders—until they realize how much they needed it. Examining India's own policy choices throughout its history, Menon focuses in particular on India's responses to the rise of China, as well as other regional powers. Menon also looks to the future and analyzes how India's policies are likely to evolve in response to current and new challenges. As India grows economically and gains new stature across the globe, both its domestic preoccupations and international choices become more significant. India itself will become more affected by what happens in the world around it. Menon makes a powerful geopolitical case for an India increasingly and positively engaged in Asia and the broader world in pursuit of a pluralistic, open, and inclusive world order.

Book Business Sutra

    Book Details:
  • Author : Devdutt Pattanaik
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2015-09-16
  • ISBN : 9789384067540
  • Pages : 450 pages

Download or read book Business Sutra written by Devdutt Pattanaik and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-16 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this landmark book, bestselling author, leadership coach and mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik shows how, despite its veneer of objectivity, modern management is rooted in Western beliefs and obsessed with accomplishing rigid objectives and increasing shareholder value. By contrast, the Indian way of doing business, as apparent in Indian mythology but no longer seen in practice accommodates subjectivity and diversity and offers an inclusive, more empathetic way of achieving success. Great value is placed on darshan, that is, on how we see the world and our relationship with Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth. Business Sutra uses stories, symbols and rituals drawn from Hindu, Jain and Buddhist mythology to understand a wide variety of business situations that range from running a successful tea stall to nurturing talent in a large multinational corporation. At the heart of the book is a compelling premise: if we believe that wealth needs to be chased, the workplace becomes a rana-bhoomi - a battleground of investors, regulators, employers, employees, vendors, competitors and customers, if we believe that wealth needs to be attracted, the workplace becomes a ranga-bhoomi - a playground where everyone is happy.

Book The Greater India Experiment

    Book Details:
  • Author : Arkotong Longkumer
  • Publisher : Stanford University Press
  • Release : 2020-12-01
  • ISBN : 1503614239
  • Pages : 411 pages

Download or read book The Greater India Experiment written by Arkotong Longkumer and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The assertion that even institutions often viewed as abhorrent should be dispassionately understood motivates Arkotong Longkumer's pathbreaking ethnography of the Sangh Parivar, a family of organizations comprising the Hindu right. The Greater India Experiment counters the urge to explain away their ideas and actions as inconsequential by demonstrating their efforts to influence local politics and culture in Northeast India. Longkumer constructs a comprehensive understanding of Hindutva, an idea central to the establishment of a Hindu nation-state, by focusing on the Sangh Parivar's engagement with indigenous peoples in a region that has long resisted the "idea of India." Contextualizing their activities as a Hindutva "experiment" within the broader Indian political and cultural landscape, he ultimately paints a unique picture of the country today.

  • Publisher : Rupa Publications India Pvt Limited
  • Release : 2021-07-05
  • ISBN : 9789390918812
  • Pages : 216 pages

Download or read book THE INDIA STORY HB 1ST written by Bimal Jalan and published by Rupa Publications India Pvt Limited. This book was released on 2021-07-05 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on extensive research and data, and aided by Bimal Jalan's experience as the former Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, this book gives us a vision for the way ahead. Since 2014, the political profile of the Indian Union government has changed dramatically. After a long period of coalitions and their innate issues and delays they bring to the reform process, we have a government that has a majority on its own. This puts India in a great place to initiate some strong, much-needed political and economic reforms in order to promote overall national interests. Before diving in, it is important to look back and learn from our past experiences, so that we don't repeat the same mistakes. And who better than Bimal Jalan to take us through India's economic past. Divided into two sections, 'Learning from our Economic Past' and 'Beyond the Metrics of Economy', the essays in this volume cover a range of topics-from economic and political reforms to good governance-and a recounting of the lessons they provide is bound to contribute immensely to the contemporary debate about India's approach to its economy and political reforms in the twenty-first century. Bimal Jalan-long-standing witness to India's trajectory through the decades-gives us a complete picture of the country's economic journey so far. In the pages of this book, we read about broad issues of development policy, the role of science and technology, exchange rate management, globalization and more-all significant themes in the ongoing debate on India's approach to economic reforms towards 2025 and beyond. As Indians, and indeed the world, face challenging times, the recounting of tales from India's economic history, when accompanied by the observations and wisdom of a senior economist like Bimal Jalan, can help allay fears and give optimism for the times to come.

Book India at the Global High Table

Download or read book India at the Global High Table written by Teresita C. Schaffer and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An integrated picture of India's global vision, its foreign policy, and the negotiating practices that link the two. In recent decades, India has grown as a global power, and has been able to pursue its own goals in its own way. Negotiating for India's Global Role gives an insightful and integrated analysis of India’s ability to manage its evolving role. Former ambassadors Teresita and Howard Schaffer shine a light on the country’s strategic vision, foreign policy, and the negotiating behavior that links the two. The four concepts woven throughout the book offer an exploration of India today: its exceptionalism; nonalignment and the drive for “strategic autonomy;” determination to maintain regional primacy; and, more recently, its surging economy. With a specific focus on India’s stellar negotiating practice, Negotiating for India's Global Role is a unique, comprehensive understanding of India as an emerging international power player, and the choices it will face between its classic view of strategic autonomy and the desirability of finding partners in the fast-evolving world.

Journeying across India, Bangladesh and Pakistan, he brings to life a cast of characters including spies, idealists, freedom fighters and politicians from Churchill to Gandhi.
